Answer:

6 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

1*8 gives you 8 gallons.

The same multiplying factor is multiplied to the cups needed too.

(3/4)*8=6

∴ 6 cups of orange juice is needed to make 8 gallon of fruit punch.

Find a formula for geometric series that begins with 28, 98, 343,...​
otez555 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a geometric series, the successive terms differ by a common ratio which is determined by dividing a term by the preceding term.

The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

r represents the common ratio between successive terms in the sequence.

n represents the number of terms in the sequence.

From the seies shown,

a = 28

r = 98/28 = 343/98 = 3.5

The formula representing the nth term of the given sequence would be expressed as

Tn = 28 × (3.5)^(n - 1)

Suppose that a large mixing tank initially holds 500 gallons of water in which 50 pounds of salt have been dissolved. Another br
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The differential equation for the amount of salt A(t) in the tank at a time  t > 0 is \frac{dA}{dt}=12 - \frac{2A(t)}{500+t}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a large mixing tank initially holds 500 gallons of water in which 50 pounds of salt have been dissolved. Another brine solution is pumped into the tank at a rate of 3 gal/min, and when the solution is well stirred, it is then pumped out at a slower rate of 2 gal/min.

The concentration of the solution entering is 4 lb/gal.

Firstly, as we know that the rate of change in the amount of salt with respect to time is given by;

\frac{dA}{dt}= \text{R}_i_n - \text{R}_o_u_t

where, \text{R}_i_n = concentration of salt in the inflow \times input rate of brine solution

and \text{R}_o_u_t = concentration of salt in the outflow \times outflow rate of brine solution

So, \text{R}_i_n = 4 lb/gal \times 3 gal/min = 12 lb/gal

Now, the rate of accumulation = Rate of input of solution - Rate of output of solution

                                                = 3 gal/min - 2 gal/min

                                                = 1 gal/min.

It is stated that a large mixing tank initially holds 500 gallons of water, so after t minutes it will hold (500 + t) gallons in the tank.

So, \text{R}_o_u_t = concentration of salt in the outflow \times outflow rate of brine solution

             = \frac{A(t)}{500+t} \text{ lb/gal } \times 2 \text{ gal/min} = \frac{2A(t)}{500+t} \text{ lb/min }

Now, the differential equation for the amount of salt A(t) in the tank at a time  t > 0 is given by;

= \frac{dA}{dt}=12\text{ lb/min } - \frac{2A(t)}{500+t} \text{ lb/min }

or \frac{dA}{dt}=12 - \frac{2A(t)}{500+t}.

< ADF measures 2x degrees and < FDC measures x + 12 degrees. What is the measure
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

<h2>Angle ADF is equal to 52° and angle FDC is equal to 38°.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

In the image attaches, you can observe that angles ADF and FDC are complementary angles, because they sum 90°.

\angle ADF + \angle FDC = 90\°

And we know that

\angle ADF=2x\\\angle FDC = x+12

Replacing these expressions, we have

2x+x+12=90\°\\3x=90\° - 12\°\\x=\frac{78}{3}\\ x=26

Then, we replace this value in each expression to find both angles measures.

\angle ADF= 2(26)=52\°\\\angle FDC = 26+12=38\°

Therefore, angle ADF is equal to 52° and angle FDC is equal to 38°.
